One quick question. When you finish site consultantions and develop a management plan, who does the actual work of restoration if not done by the land owner. ? Are there companies that do these management services professionally ?

this is great! do you worry about different invasive plants taking over as you've opened the canopy? looks super diverse out there.

Not much of a review there bud. Ya didn't even put them on. Unboxing maybe. Review definitely not.

Twice a year is not enough mowing to keep thistle from spreading. You can't pull thistle and kill it either as any remaining roots will resprout ... I have clover plots and hay fields , corn fields etc. Thistle is a huge problem and the best way to kill is with chemicals..

What does this area look like now 3 yrs later?

Where can I purchase this blend?

I only have a brush mover or my cub cadet 50” mower as choices. I already see young pigweed(I’m in Minnesota) in the 1/2acre plot I planted about a month ago. Will setting my Cub Cadet at the highest (4”) mark and keeping it mowed all summer and fall allow the clover and chicory to crowd out the other weeds or will the lack of weeds getting to seed stage work out well for me?

Thanks for sharing. I just planted clover grass seed in my backyard instead of the traditional Kentucky lawn. What herbicide can I buy to use to kill weeds in my newly planted Clover lawn?

What do you do when you clearcut like this, but all that comes in is a carpet of Japanese Stiltgrass? Killing it with glyphosate, it just comes back from the seeds, and it smothers all other regeneration except stump sprouts.

That's awesome! You mentioned selling them? I'm in southeast Iowa. Do you have a buyer I could contact? I'm sheared 24 acres and waiting for a mulcher to come and mulch the remaining 20 acres. I have a few slick back cedars that could be logged. My forester and others suggest I just remove the cedars and instead of marketing them. I burned 6 acres this spring and there's not much left except cedar logs! Good early successional starting to pop up! The 24 acres I sheared I'm planning to burn this year waiting for contractor to come in and put in damn good firebreaks. I've put in quite a few in my normal timber but this 24 acres is a matchbox and want a permanent firebreak I can maintain every year. Love the stuff you guys put out keep up the good work!!

Love it. That was a mistake I made a few years ago. Had a fella log black locust and I didn't realize the locust response 😅so hack n squirt this summer boys!

❤

What was the harvesting plan? Shelterwood?

This was also the most effective video on demonstrating safe and effective management of fire as well as how to get the best fire effects for management goals! Great work

Do you have any videos on what happened over the past few years? You are probably due for another burn soon. Esp to knock back the invasive vines. It is weird being in a class (hardwood management) where we are learning about oak regeneration and you are talking about killing your precious oak regen. That is what we need more than ever

Im gonna do this on an 1/4 acre with a weed eater and backpack sprayer, i was wondering of y'all limed it ( soil test) and I was also wondering if spraying early in spring and planting buckweat for a few months then laying it down and spraying it would help with weeds and nutrients and give does and fawns some diversity in summer, my land is more narly than yours, i have alot of thick stalk weeds and briars, briars are more in patches tho, its so thick the bucks push does in here in the rut to corner them, i just want a kill plot close to stand cause they never really use the land the same all the time

Did you edge feather both sides?

Made where

Gotta love when they read the script. Completed my Grand Slam last spring in Florida. Heading back down, this spring.

SPOT ON BROTHER! Been saying this for years. I remember being a kid back in the 70's-80's and going fishing at the local creek. In the quarter mile walk to the creek you could catch enough crickets or hoppers to fish all day. I can't tell you the last time I saw two grasshoppers in the same day.

Sedges are a nemesis in my orchard clovers. Thanks for covering them.

Thanks so much for doing these videos. I watch everything I can in this area but you’re one of the best. I eat it up!

How do I get a copy of the new Habitat calendar?

I mow my clover plot once a month in the summer.. It doesn't stop the weeds, i have used Arrest Max and that doesnt kill the weeds. I have resorted to picking / pulling weed roots ... I havent spot treated with glyphosate yet but its a great idea. Its November 29th in the Northeast and the deer are still in my clover..

When you use the word bramble does that include briars? I don’t hear that word “bramble” much where I’m at and wondered.

Great idea! Been following you guys and y’all do great work. Keep it coming!

2 ordered, one for me and one to share! Thanks for a great resource.

CONGRATS!!! I haven’t even got my deer yet so that’s amazing. Great shot btw

Cool hunt 👍🦌

Sweet hunt! 👍🦌

Love seeing that boss hen set that decoy straight.

How about controlling sedges in a clover Chicory plot?

That was awesome. How did you get that footage through the scope?

Who's in the Cattel & hay biz?

It’s possible to do it all. Build the soil requires less inputs better more desirable plants

Feed deer, hold deer and possibly get deer close to harvest

fire 🔥 is life for native plants that dependon fire for seed germination.

How do I get rid of purslane in my new clover lawn?

Show the whole truck

Do you add baking soda to your water so that way it creates carbon dioxide and also extinguishes the oxygen in the air?

Never been to Florida during Lovebug season?

What kills Lespedeza but not my clover?

So spraying herbicides and pesticides!

Im new to your podcast and your channel. But i know Hunter and Thomas on S&F theyve been huge to teach me prescribed fire. Seeing in this video, the green honeysuckle light up gets me really excited to light my stuff up soon. Thank you gentlemen!

You said turkeys will go in that ? Seems too thick

What you do for Dog fennel Mares Tail taking over . If we disturb soul with disc after burning only thing we get is Sansburs any comments would be appreciated.

Do you just leave the tress lay or do you move them?

Good stuff I want to try a growing season burn. Some of my land looks similar to yours. Loads of young honeysuckle under nice oaks. Do you ever burn small poison ivy plants? Some of the areas I've burned have 3-8 inch poison ivy saplings everywhere and I'm wondering if you've encountered that

How was this a review freaking three minute video announcing that you bought something

'Promo sm' 🤪
